Olano’s Empanadas

My wife and I tried two different empanadas while at the Winter Farmers Market at the Mitchell Domes. Amazing taste, super fresh ingredients at a fair price. You will not be disappointed! Hopefully they get their food truck soon!
Please keep us updated on your locations for farmers markets this summer, would love to see you at the Bayview market!

My wife and I drive from Chicago to the Kenosha market almost every week to eat empanadas. Great food and nice people.

I visited Peru some years back and fell in love with empanadas Peruvian style, which you can never get around here — everything is peppers and cumen, more Mexican than anything else. I just about cried when I saw this booth at Milaegers, with GENUINE Peruvian empanadas — not spicy, just mild and savory and so amazing it was practically a religious experience, complete with the salsa verde with lots of coriander. Love love love! Will be stalking you at the festivals this summer!

If your looking to try something delicious and different you must try Olano’s Empanadas. They come in different varieties along with a few sauces the chimichurri is delicious!

These empanadas are fantastic, plain and simple.
Each variation (chicken /​beef /​vegetarian) is prepared with fresh, high-​quality ingredients in the traditional Peruvian style, which was a flavor profile I wasn’t familiar with before trying them but they really blew me away. Each empanada is packed full of fillings so you are definitely getting your money worth, and they can certainly be enjoyed as a meal on their own or in addition to your accompaniments of choice.
In addition, the sauces … so good! I’m partial to the spicy sauce but the chimichurri is wonderful as well. The ingredients and preparation really come together to form bright flavors that perfectly accompany the empanadas.
Olano’s Empanadas are a great addition to the local food scene in Kenosha (in addition to monthly deliveries to the Chicago area) and provide a really wonderful alternative to the more well-​known Mexican and Latin-​American flavors. Whether you have them delivered or order for event catering, once you try them you will definitely agree.
